2. SUCKING FACE: When Julia Louis-Dreyfus of "Veep" won her third straight Emmy as Best Actress in a Comedy, Bryan Cranston -- mustache and all -- intercepted her on the way to the stage and engaged her in a monumental lip-lock. (Shades of Adrien Brody and Halle Berry at the Oscars).

Suddenly, Louis-Dreyfus had no problem remembering that Cranston played a dentist who she once dated on "Seinfeld."

Fallon went on to deliver a speech as Colbert whipsered lines in his ear.

"I want to thank his wife and his children," Fallon said, before finally turning the mic over to the actual winner.

5. LOTS OF HEART: HBO's "The Normal Heart," a film about AIDS activists in the 1980s, as expected, captured the prize for best TV film. Upon accepting, director Ryan Murphy -- accompanied by ailing writer Larry Kramer -- delivered a moving speech that included a dedication to artists who have died from HIV/AIDS.
